Positioning well for a win requires thorough analyses of markets, customers and competitors. Best practices suggest that companies gather relevant intelligence through research and relationships. The challenge exists in extracting and analyzing both types of data and engaging the capture and proposal teams to review the information in order to agree upon the best proposal themes and win strategies.

Attendees will learn the importance of making a commitment to analyzing market and competitive data in BD activities and strategies to engage colleagues in combining two types of information.

This session is designed for capture and BD professionals, as well as anyone involved in any aspect of the proposal development lifestyle.
